Project: Design a Purification Process
Students must engineer a system to purify water that contains macroscopic and microscopic contaminants...
Research Enhancement: Water Purification
Students research, discuss, and write about a local water pollution issue.
Optimum Conditions
Students use a pressure and temperature sensor to observe the effect of changing various experimental conditions on the rate of a chemical reaction.
Catalysts
Students compare the rate of hydrogen peroxide decomposition using a variety of catalysts and catalyst sources.
Equilibrium Reactions
Students model an equilibrium reaction at the particle level as well as the visible level.
Le Chatelier's Principle
Students observe the effects on a reversible reaction at equilibrium when the concentration or temperature is changed.
What is pH?
Students use a pH sensor to test the pH of a set of serial dilutions and make a connection between the pH value (& pOH) of a solution and its hydrogen...
Titration of an Unknown Acid
Students use a pH sensor to conduct a strong acid and weak acid titration with a strong base.
Antacids: An Inquiry Study
Students use a pH sensor to investigate how antacid tablets work and use a back titration method to determine how much of the active ingredient is found...
Vitamin C Titration
Students use a redox titration to determine the amount of vitamin C in an unknown food sample.
